Penwrite hurriedly slung the leg over his shoulders, supporting most of Navy's weight as they stepped farther into the library. "He doesn't know Galaxy, so she'll be safe out there, right?"

~~~~~~

She ran toward the library, yelling Penwrite's name over and over again. "Help!"

It was no use: Navy and Penwrite had already gotten into the stairwell that led up to Navy's room, and she happened to grunt and stagger at the time, so Penwrite probably didn't even notice that Galaxy wanted his attention.

Outside, the cloud of ash condensed into a singe cloud, which began to stalk about the outside of the building...

Navy huffed as her and Penwrite started up the stairs, getting weaker by the second, "You... Might have to... Carry me..."

Re: MLP:FIM: Grand Castilia

"Don't mind if I do." Locke flipped onto the couch, taking up the whole space as he layed on his back. "Pretty sweet place you got here." Must... resist... urge... to ... pilfer. The strain to resist his instincts showed on his irritated face, sweat almost dripping from his forhead. "So, how long did you say it would take to get these done again?"

"They'll be about an hour, Star replied. "give or take a few minutes. I'll get started right away, feel free to talk to me while I work." and so he started making the requested items out of the requested materials.

(OOC: don't know how we'll handle this. wait a while in silence while the others post to pad out an hour in game? just hold a conversation about things?)

Penwrite groaned. "Not like... I'm in... the best of shape here myself...." Grunting, he bent down and worked his way under Navy, standing up so that she rested on his back. "Nngh... grrr... isn't there anypony else in this darn library," he shouted, loud as he could.

~~~~~~

Galaxy decided to take her chances and made a dash for the front door. "Banzai!!!"

"Oh, just interested in... learning the history of a new land? Yeah, that's a reason," she answered. "Do you know if any of these books mention any kind of magical artifact that could steal the magic from an extremely powerful, evil unicorn? hypothetically?"

"I'm not that good with, ah, 'artifacts.' You'd ha-" Autumn started, only to quiet and turn when he heard a yell.

"Uh, that... That sounds rather urgent..." The pegasus said as he finally produced the keys from his vest. "Be sure to return these to me before you leave the library, Okay?" He said as he set the keys on a nearby table and flies off in a hurry, giving the mare no time to respond without chasing him.

Moon caught the keys. She stood there for a second, first looking at the keys, then in the direction Autumn just flew. "Like hay I'm going to miss out on whatever's going on." She left the keys on a nearby table before flying off after Autumn.------Shin was lost in reading all the manga available, but the sound of Pen yelling caught his attention."I better go see what that's about " He said as flew towards the sound.but he just fell flat on his face. "Oh, yeah," he mumbled as he stood up and ran towards the sound instead.

From Penwrite's back, Navy shoved a hoof out in front of his face, dangling a pair of keys in front of him. "There's a green potion... beneath my sink... It's in a corked glass bottle... Just bring that down..." She started to slide from his back as her eyes lost focus, "Hurry... I think I'm gonna pass out soon..."

Shin was surprised as he ran into the gem-eyed mare. after he was sent flying, he sat on the ground a moment as his eyes spun around. He shook his head to get them aligned again before saying, "Oh, Hi Galaxy. I was just on my way to see why I heard Pen yelling."

Meanwhile, Penwrite grabbed the key from Navy and ran for her sink, hoping against hope that he would make it in time. "Green bottle green bottle green bottle!"

The keyhole of the door sparked a little as Penwrite opened it, but didn't seem to fuss. Sure enough, under the kitchen sink, were a few unlabeled glass bottles with various potions in them of various colors. Two of them were identical and green, lined up next to three red ones. It was pretty obvious that Navy had meant for him to get her one of the green ones...

Back on the stairs, Navy was slowly crawling upwards, eyes closed as she moved herself closer to the landing between the second and third floor. Behind her, a few stray drops of something green and sticky were coagulating in a trail from where she had come in...

"Well, I'm not exactly sure where it came from. It was a bit muffled," Shin said as he looked around.

Re: MLP:FIM: Grand Castilia

By the time Penwrite saw her again, Navy had dragged herself to the third-floor landing, where she'd propped herself up against the wall. She was looking worse than ever, with her eyelids loose and her coat color darkening, especially around her mouth where she'd been drooling that green stuff. It was like some black ooze was trying to come up through her skin. Her mane and tail had, conversely, lightened a bit, having been drained of color and form, now hanging loose and limp as if doused with water, and seemed to be deteriorating in general, where pieces looked like they were falling apart...

She looked wearily up at Penwrite, "I... I had two... Uh.. ok... gimme one... And... I'll just..." she woozily held out a forehoof for him to put a bottle in...

Re: MLP:FIM: Grand Castilia

Navy took the bottle from Penwrite, hooking it by the beck in her fetlock. She gave him a sideways glance, half smirking, accidentally letting a little more green fluid dribble down her face, "Me? Die? Not when I've got a handsome stallion like you to live for." without even giving him a chance to respond, she leaned her head back and hastily downed the entire bottle, letting a little bit of it splatter out of her mouth and onto the landing and her fur, where it steamed a little.

Next to the green stuff she'd been coughing up, it was a bit lighter and healthier looking...

The maimed unicorn and the... earth pony, defeat the ancient evil and live happily ever after together. So come on, live. Live!"

Re: MLP:FIM: Grand Castilia

Navy slumped back against the wall, taking a deep breath as she let the empty glass bottle roll out of her fetlock, "Mmmm... Make 'em have a bunch of foals too... Like... Ten of 'em... 'cause they can't keep their hooves off each other..." she nodded her head up and down slowly, eyes closed, "Also... Books... Lots and lots of books... Yeah..." she opened her eyes again, looking a bit healthier now, "Yeah... Uh... We both need a shower...." she held up a hoof which had been caked in mud and that green stuff, just like Penwrite's back...

Star thinks for a minute "It should take about half an hour, maybe forty-five minutes tops, unless you have any specific design in mind, that will take just a tad longer otherwise I plan on making them a simple pince-nez design: simple, managable, fashionable, and quite functional" he gives a slight grin "That sound good?"

Penwrite blushed a little as Navy kept talking. "Kids. Yeah uh, I think I'll save that for the sequel book. I'll make it into a whole series. Just stay alive so we can have more adventures, okay? You, me, and that lovable rogue Locke. He'll be our patsy, eh? Come on, you've always wanted a patsy!"

Galaxy groaned and sat down where she stood, shoulders slumped in defeat. She looked over at Shin. "What have you been up to?"

Navy rolled herself into a sitting position, putting a hoof on Penwrite's chest, "You're rambling, dear. And we're both covered in mud." She stood, shakilly, and held out a foreleg for him to help her up the stairs. "Let's go get cleaned up..." she had a mischievous glint in her eye, "...Then we can take a nap."

"Oh, umm..." Shin didn't want to say he had lost track of time reading manga. "Research."

Galaxy raised an eyebrow. "Research. Right. What sort of research?"

"Uhh, I'm new to Equestria so I was reading some history, specifically some history behind Grand Castilia and," He said nervously before hanging his head. "I was reading manga. Which is technically research for my job," he added, perking up t the last part.

Re: MLP:FIM: Grand Castilia

Penwrite nodded and started for the bedroom, being sure to go easy for Navy. Inside the bathroom he turned the water on, opening a cabinet and grabbing every soap and shampoo he saw. His coat felt stiff and itchy from the mud and robot oil in it. "So... you come here often? Heh."

~~~~~~

Galaxy perked up at this, turning from worried to thoughtful. "Manga, you say? So you must be a manga writer or artist then. That's pretty cool... but you should really be doing that research." She grinned as a plan hatched in her mind. If they had made it into the library then Penwrite was safe, so she could focus more on her mission.

"Here, how about I help you with that research. Then maybe later we could talk manga, if you like." She made sure to bat her eyelashes at Shin and smile extra-nice.

Navy rolled her eyes, "Well it IS my bathroom. Just grab the brush and get in, we'll see if we need alot of shampoo later..." she stuck a hoof under the water to check the temperature, then stepped in and stood under the water, giving a sigh and closing her eyes as the mud and green stuff was rinsed from where it hadn't had a chance to dry. She didn't have much oil on her though, as she hadn't done alot of close combat.

"I'm actually a writer and artist. And yeah, a little help with research would be great. You've gotta be careful researching this kind of thing or you'll get some misleading 'facts'," he said. don't ask be how a pony can do air quotes, just go with it.

Galaxy perked her ears as she caught the faint sound of a shower turning on somewhere. That must be Penwrite or Navy, she decided. "Well then, let's get started. Lead the way to whatever it is you're supposed to be researching!"

I came to Castilia after my world travels because I knew you'd moved here. I do know you, which is why I'm asking instead of running for the nearest police station. But questions have been digging at the back of my mind since this whole mess started. I've never known you to team up with thieves and criminals before Locke came along.

Re: MLP:FIM: Grand Castilia

Navy was good enough at avoiding this stuff, but she was starting to sweat now, "Well, adrenaline can do alot to you, and it's not like I didn't faint and start coughing up spent-mana everywhere after it was done. And... Uh... Locke isn't that bad of a pony... Just because he's good at stealing things doesn't mean he wants to hurt anypony... And... Like I said, I like books, and I really wanted one from Anguish Shade's library... because they're old and unique..." she blinked, unable to really say much more about it, but tried to change the subject all together, "Come on Pen, it's been a long day... Aren't you tired of all this stuff for now?" She put her hoof back around his neck, nuzzling at it as she tried to gently pull him back into the water...

_________________Hey guys, I'm one of the RP section mods. Feel free to bug me any time: I'm not strict and I try to be very approachable.Fanfiction Character: Vallerie Nightengale (female, idiot)

Navy blinked: she'd let that one slip. Why did she have to like the smart ones?She sighed, "Alright, so I was looking for something specific in that library. Anguish Shade was a descendant of the Shade house, a few hundred years ago. One of the last, actually... He did alot of experiments with transformations and alchemy, and some of the things he was working on aren't even possible with what we know today... So..." she glanced off, "I figured, if I could find any of his journals in that library, it would be a huge discovery, and as the librarian of his old town, it wouldn't be hard to say it was hidden around here..." She sighed and looked back to Penwrite, "Look, I really didn't want anypony else getting involved in this... I figured the house would be abandoned, and I had no idea anypony as dangerous as Hateful Shade could still be around..." she shrugged it off, "Penwrite, none of this is important right now. We need to take care of ourselves if we're gonna fight someone like Hate. Now c'mon, let's get washed up and rested, alright? You're still covered in oil..." she glanced down at the brush in her hoof and held it up for him, giving him a smile, "Besides, this could be enjoyable..."

Navy smiled, gently pulling him back under the water, where she began to gently brush the oil and grime out of his coat... Obviously, being brushed felt good, especially with Navy's impressive level of skill with it. Penwrite probably also noticed that being brushed by the mare's hoof was much more "personal" than if the brush had been controlled by telekinesis...
